Those are probably LEDs...

Great shots batman. My favorite was the flyby pic. What a great group of planes. You had some excellent seating.

I'm surprised the F-16 could fly in formation with the P-51s and P-38! I would think it's stall speed is near the cruise speed of those prop planes.

Thank you.
I was using Canon T3i with Canon 18-200mm w/ IS lens.
But the IS was turned off most of the time since it was so bright and the shutter speed was fast enough most of the time.

Really nice pictures. Good composition, good framing, nice lighting - especially since you had such limited control of the situation.
Thanks for sharing these.
